Download or read book A History of Building Types written by Nikolaus Pevsner and published by Bollingen Foundation. This book was released on 1979 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available again in paperback, this first survey of building types ever written remains an essential guide to vital and often overlooked features of the architectural and social inheritance of the West. Here Nikolaus Pevsner shares his immense erudition and keenly discerning eye with readers curious about the ways in which architecture reflects the character of society. He describes twenty types of buildings ranging from the most monumental to the least, from the most ideal to the most utilitarian. More than seven hundred illustrations illuminate the text. Both Europe and America have been covered with examples chosen largely from the nineteenth century, the crucial period for diversification. Included are national monuments, libraries, theaters, hospitals, prisons, factories, hotels, and many other public buildings; churches and private dwellings have been excluded for practical reasons. The author is concerned not only with the evolution of each type in response to social and architectural change, but also with differing attitudes toward function, materials, and style.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoroughly illustrated classic study traces the history of the world-famous Chicago school of architecture from its beginnings with the functional innovations of William Le Baron Jenney and others to their imaginative development by Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. The Chicago School of Architecture places the Chicago school in its historical setting, showing it at once to be the culmination of an iron and concrete construction and the chief pioneer in the evolution of modern architecture. It also assesses the achievements of the school in terms of the economic, social, and cultural growth of Chicago at the turn of the century, and it shows the ultimate meaning of the Chicago work for contemporary architecture. "A major contribution [by] one of the world's master-historians of building technique."—Reyner Banham, Arts Magazine "A rich, organized record of the distinguished architecture with which Chicago lives and influences the world."—Ruth Moore, Chicago Sun-Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Public Buildings: Under the Control of the Treasury Department Treasury Department, Office of the Secretary. Washington, December 2, 1900. In view of the fact that the Department was not in possession of information in a concise and convenient form relating to public buildings under its control, directions were given for the preparation of this report, which it is hoped will prove valuable to the committees in Congress for the purpose of reference in considering the erection, completion, and occupation of the various buildings which may be hereafter proposed. The acts of appropriation or authorization which determined the erecting or acquiring of the buildings herein described are also given. The text relating to each edifice is accompanied by a photographic view, and it is believed that the information will be of practical value in the direction indicated.
